Just got a new laptop, what's the best method to check if it's hardware is compatible with a distro?
I managed to get an ok deal on a Lenovo Legion slim 5 with the ryzen 5 7640hs and Geforce rtx 4050. My experience with Lenovo's on Linux in the past has been kind of mixed, is there a good way to check all the hardware for levels of compatibility?

Most distros can be set up on a live usb, so you can just run off of the usb and check if all your devices supported
Yeah, that's true I suppose. I was just hoping there was a bit more mature, "this chipset is unsupported because of this" sort of thing now.
